Summary: An uplifting poem on Creation/Love/Worship/Temptation
Review: A poetic retelling of Genesis 1-3. The focus is on the why of creation and relationship with God and the why of the temptation. A very thoughtful book. Some of the topics covered are: Creation, Mankinds relationship with God, aloneness (the need for a helpmate), worship "Worship is your gift to me. And Oh, most glorious is it!", Freedom and Choice, Lust and Love, Temptation. This book is a most read!This is the first book of the "Symphony Triology" As far as I can tell only one other book is written in this trilogy - "An Overture of Light".See also the Singer Trilogy.

Summary: Beautiful work, great to read at bedtime
Review: This book is very artistically written and obviously well thought out. Miller's insights into the events of Genesis are beautifully captured in almost sensuous poetry, and it really makes you think about all that lies behind other Biblical events. You should definitely read it. It would especially be nice to read with your spouse or fiancee. :)

Summary: Awesome! The most moving story of love I have ever read!
Review: This book was recommended to me by a close friend who knows my hunger for good literature. At first I was captivated by the fact that the author took an age old story (Adam & Eve) and was able to weave a tale of unconditional love, lust, envy, hate and vulnerability. I couldn't put this one down. With every turn of the page I was more and more captivated by these characters and the turmoil that love sometimes heaps on us. I would recommend this to anyone. It still amazes me that its been 9 years since I first read this book and still find it to be in a class all its own. Very few books can compare.
